Zegnat As far as I have seen, JSON-LD has very little use-cases, especially when most JSON-LD is just following Schema.org and duplicating the values that already exist in the HTML. At that point you should just use the HTML microdata spec to add Schema.org straight to your HTML, no reason for the data duplication (DRY).
